Because what the hell are we doing here if there is nothing....

Nothing? The fact, that we are here, means that there is something. We are something. Why would religious rituals make us more valid?

Interesting thought Mel. The thought actually scares me a little. You live at this moment for what reason. To die at you 87th and then nothing. What happens after death according to you. And please, Mel, answer this question since I asked it dozens of times....

I will answer everything u ask, when I get to it. But, at the moment, I am still on page 19.

like recently a women's rights bill was passed in pakistan ...

I read about a women rights law, that has been recently passed in Pakistan.Now, if a woman is raped, she only needs 2 male witnesses. Before this law was passed, she would have needed 5 male witnesses.Fuchinrot, are they taking the piss or what?

five witnesses? so first she will be gangbanged by five men, and then those five chaps need to commit that they raped that poor woman? when, for god sakes, are there five witnesses that is are watching during a rape. never heard of a rape taking place the middle of a busy shopping centre or in the train at peak hour. crazy and hypocryt. it seems that musharaf wants to rape every now and then. this freaks me out. those penguin lawmakers need to use their brains.

five witnesses. so when there are 4 witnisses then it didn't happen? scarry and ridiculous

Scary and ridiculous? Nah, it's all good stuff straight out of the law books of those that we are supposed to sit down and have a chat over a cup of tea with.

You know, the ones who think that flying some planes into buildings to kill a few thousand Americans (those nasty people who live in the country called the "Great Satan") is a good idea, and will "please Allah". The ones that think that blowing up a nighclub or two to kill a few hundred Australian and Western infidels is another pleasing act. The ones that believe that strapping some bombs to themselves and blowing up a train in the London underground (and why not a bus while we're at it) will please Allah so much that they will ascend to heaven and be given 76 virgins that they can do with what they want and not have to worry about witnesses.

Do you think they want sugar in their tea?

Untill there is scientific proof whether god excists or not, it will be all about speculation. This person says this the other that. We can only believe or not believe based on happenings in the very past. The discussion is over when science has proved that there is no such thing as god. What we do know is that there have taken place several religious miracles that can't be explained. Another aspect about this I find interesting is the "nearly dead experience". People with these experience have been telling about this.

I think, whoever made up these religious stories would be astonished at how much argument they are creating. They probably never meant them to be taken so seriously.

No, no, no. A feminist joke would go something like "I have a penis in a jar. I take it out when the repairman comes to remind him of his collective male responsibility for thousands of years of female repression. Then I kick him in the whatsits and push him down the stairs. Ha ha ha!"

Tway, u are going to have to learn forgiveness.

I see that, after the fevered posting frenzy of earlier today, it was, once again, coffeebreak time??? Or is everyone just helping T unpack in hopes she has that jar for show & tell time?

yeah, I am hoping she will post a photo, of her jar collection. Can photos be posted here.
